"There will always be men who will be drawn to the lonely reaches of the sea. There, where the ships ply their courses under full sail, a share of freedom and adventure can be found. Life at sea has a rhythm of its own: violent storms, spray, and rain give way to days of peace and relaxation. Sailing is a way of life for which there is no substitute." Frank Grube and Gerhard Richter; The Big Book of Sailing

Thanks to Perry Phillips for forwarding the drawings for a Junk-Rigged Flicka. He says that the sail is similar to the Flicka owned by Jack Gera, but not the exact same rig.
Apologies for the poor resolution of these images. I inherited them from the original site in 2008. If anyone has better copies or any photos of a junk rigged flicka we'd be delighted to hear from you.
